Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

With regards,

Good one Hemen-ji

Plastics being non bio degradable is a big problem. It can be substituted with similar from Cane biproducts. I suggest your proposal needs to be sent to PMO & Jaitle, Suresh Prabhu and the environment minister.

Cheers

Missing   The   Disease  ?

Symptoms :

Demonstrations / Agitations / Morchas / Militancy ( add your choice )


Disease  :

Injustice / Inequity / Exploitation / Corruption / Denial of Service ( add )


History  :

*  In pre-historic times ( stone age ), everybody had equal " opportunity "

*  In Medieval ages , Kings / Lords enriched themselves with slave labour

*  During last 200 years, machines replaced slaves and rich/poor gap widened

*  Rich people ( later, Banks owned by rich ) lent money to other rich , enabling them to
    control " Natural Resources / Means of Production / Means for creation of Wealth "

*  Rich / Poor gap became a Moat surrounding invisible " Forts /  Islands of Riches "
   
*  Religion became a tool in the hands of the Rich who asked priests to preach :

    " Resign to your Destiny - even if that means living in abject poverty . It is God's will "

*  Kings ( and later on States ) too became subservient to the CAPITALIST ORDER , serving
    the interests of the rich only . After all , the Rich could finance those land-grabbing wars !

*  75 years ago TV arrived and it started exposing the life-styles of those rich to the poor

*  Then came Internet / Mobile / Social Media and poor got appalled to know how rich/ poor
    gap continued to widen with arrival of each year , when finally it came to a stage where
    ONE percent of World's people garnered 90 percent of World's wealth !

*  Poor also learned how the State Bureaucracy conspired with the rich to deny them even
    their " Right to a dignified Life " - by denying them " Equal Opportunities "

*  How else can we explain , Naxalite movement / Reservation movement etc ?

I hope the Bureaucracy wakes up and recognizes that " Intolerance is only a Symptom "

Inequality / Injustice / Inequity are the Disease  !

Suppressing the symptom does not make the disease to go away

It only resurfaces in another part of this body that we call , " Society "

Please , do not wait till the poor / dying people , sleeping on footpaths outside our homes , just walk into our bedrooms one day and say :

" We have had enough  !  We are not going to leave / vacate your comfortable homes "

And when 100 million poor decide to occupy our homes simultaneously , no police or military will be able to stop them !


Ye ! The Rich , the Powerful , the Elected  , the Youth ,  of India  !

Open your eyes and see how millions of poor / starving people from war-torn Syria / Iraq / Afghanistan / Yemen / Nigeria / Congo / Libya  etc are OVER-RUNNING the Europe

They are crossing a moat called Mediterranean Sea and nothing can stop them  !

Our bedrooms are not that far  !

How long will we close our eyes to some 3600 + children ( under age 5 ) , die EVERYDAY due to starvation , in our beloved BHARAT MATA  ?

Please , do not charge me with sedition

I have learned my patriotism / non violence at the feet of BAPU and fought the British for our freedom in 1942

Now , it is  YOUR  turn to free  OUR  country from POVERTY

Bharat Mata ki Jai  !

Subject: Discourage Plastics : Encourage Greed

Discourage  Plastics  :  Encourage  Greed

Two days back, the Centre notified stringent plastic waste management rules to regulate use of the hazardous material and handle the waste generated by it

These include :

Banning of plastic bags of less than 50 micron thickness

Manufacturing / use of non-recyclable multi-layered plastic to be phased out in 2 years

*  Manufacturers of products using plastic wrapping materials will have to pay prescribed
    fees to States. Collected funds will be disbursed among civic bodies and gram panchayats
    for taking measures to dispose off plastic waste


No doubt , such measures were long overdue and must be welcomed , although I have serious doubts whether our corrupt bureaucracy will strictly enforce these or use these as one more means to extort bribes from manufacturers / retailers / users  !



SOME  BACKGROUND  STATISTICS :

*  India generates 15,000 tons of plastic waste everyday

6,000 tons remain uncollected and get disposed off in hazardous manner

*  There are approx 8,000 plastic recycling units ( half of them , unregistered )


MISSING  ELEMENT  :

Abolish Corporate Income Tax for all plastic recycling units for next 10 years  !

Let GREED take over GOVERNING  !


WHAT  CAN  WE  EXPECT  ?

*  Within a year , another 10,000 plastic recycling units will come up

*  100 % of plastic produced will get recycled

*   These units will mobilize lakhs of  " Plastic Rag Pickers " to collect every small scrap of
    plastic from every nook and corner of every street in every city,  leading to Swatchh
    Bharat  and self employment !

*   Recycled plastic will get used to build strong / long-lasting road surfaces

*   Some recycled plastic will be used as raw material for mass-producing of  3D printed
     houses , solving problem of 50 million " Affordable Housing " (ask WINSUN of Shanghai )

     ( This is the kind of innovations expected from our National Science Laboratories )


WHERE  ELSE  CAN  WE  TRY  THIS  ?


*   Abolish Corporate Income Tax ( for 10 years ) for all plants / units , producing Methane
     Gas using organic waste from household / hotels / restaurants
     
*   All municipalities and gram panchayats to allow such privately-owned Organic Waste
     Processing / Gas Producing units to collect such waste from all the streets , free of cost

*   Municipalities will save hundreds of crores of rupees in Garbage Collection

*   State Electricity Boards will set up Gas based Power Plants , next to these units and buy
     the gas for power generation

If this suggestion is implemented , we would have SWATCHH  BHARAT in 2 years

And , we would have harnessed human GREED ( viz: Avoid income tax ) of our Start Ups to solve the problem of pollution

No more fires in Deonar Dumping ground !

I hope Shri Prakash Javadekar-ji is listening
